Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 8, 2017, Ceres Managed Futures LLC (the “General Partner”), the general partner of Polaris Futures Fund L.P. (the “Registrant”), issued an investor notice stating that, after reviewing the current asset levels of the Registrant, the General Partner has determined that it would be in the best interest of the Registrant to be consolidated into Ceres Tactical Systematic L.P. (formerly, Tactical Diversified Futures Fund L.P.) (“Tactical Systematic”), another commodity pool operated by the General Partner. The General Partner believes that consolidating these similarly situated funds will provide economies of scale for the Registrant, resulting in greater operational efficiency and fixed cost savings for investors. The General Partner intends to consolidate the Registrant with Tactical Systematic following the close of business on December 31, 2017.

The General Partner intends to instruct the advisors to the Registrant to liquidate the Registrant’s Futures Interests (as defined in the Registrant’s limited partnership agreement (“Registrant LPA”)) on or before December 31, 2017. The General Partner intends to contribute the cash proceeds of such liquidation, along with all of the Registrant’s remaining cash (other than the portion needed for the Registrant’s final expenses), to Tactical Systematic in exchange for units of limited partnership interest (“Tactical Systematic Units”). Following the close of business on December 31, 2017, the General Partner will effect a pro rata in-kind distribution of the Tactical Systematic Units to all of the Registrant’s limited partners (“Limited Partners”) as of that date. Following the distribution, each Limited Partner will own Tactical Systematic Units of the relevant class of units, equal in value to the Limited Partner’s interest in the Registrant as of the close of business on December 31, 2017. The Registrant will then be dissolved and terminated in accordance with the terms of the Registrant LPA.
